I'm lost on this topic. I know people are so hyped about getting shinies because they are so incredibly rare, but do shinies have any stat advantages over regular pokemon, do they get exp faster? I want to know this because I want to determine for myself whether or not hunting for shinies would be beneficial for money or battles or such. Please answer as soon as possible.
